We love mixing prints, and were totally inspired by this fun and quirky combination below.  Amber Heard paired a bold animal print with a  softer floral in two totally different colour palettes and it really works. As always, figure-hugging separates are a great way to flatter your curvy body. If needed, be sure to layer on some Spanx as your foundation and keep accessories subtle.

In our last installment in our series on The 1970s Trend for 2011 we’re taking a closer look at the details – accessories! Whether you’re adding this trend into your look slowly, or going all out head-to-toe, you can have fun adding these finishing touches to your style.

The popular 1970′s accessories were the silk scarf tied around the neck, platform shoes, gold watches, and gold jewelry. Some women would even go as far as to wear ostrich-feather boas draped over their shoulders or turbans on their heads. The 70′s fashion icon Bianca Jagger would use an ebony walking stick as an accessory along with peacock-feathers in her cloche hats, green sequined shoes, and an ivory cigarette-holder. So, as you can guess, it was not a conservative time period for accessories. It was a time to make a statement.

My personal favorites that I will be wearing to add a touch of 70′s to my outfits will be the wide brim hat and the chunky, natural necklaces.  Both are perfect to pair with one of my go-to spring outfits – my maxi dress.

W Curve model Sarah Slick bumped into us at The Curvy Revolution this past weekend in Vegas. I just had to stop her and catch her off-duty style.

Crystal Renn is one model who knows her angles and how to strike a pose. When we saw her after the OneStopPlus.com fashion show at the Boom Boom Room, she was so lovely and sweet to show off her modeling angles and strike a pose for us! Her look is very fashionable with a French twist by combining a darker color palette of blacks and grays with a classic Chanel quilted handbag. The structured blazer and harem pants emphasize Crystal’s love of angles that she shows not only in her modeling poses but also in her personal style.

Hilary Duff looked casual chic in her camel oversized off the shoulder sweater and her skinny jeans. I love the play with proportions this look is perfect for ladies with an apple shape body. You get to show off your legs in skinny jeans and show off some shoulder with the wide neckline.
